I’m joining Kathleen at Cuisine Kathleen for Let’s Dish at the Beach. Welcome to my many shades of blue and green beach table.
Everything on my table was purchased from Goodwill over the years except for the ginger jar and the shells. The shells in the ginger jar were collected by Dear and I on our beach walks and the larger shells are from Hawaii that Dear’s folks brought back in the 70’s.
I thought the bubble goblets would go well on a beach themed table.
The chargers are pale blue heavy glass.
We finally got some sunshine just in the nick of time to usher in the official start of Summer. Looks like we’re only guaranteed 2 days worth. I’m glad I was able to get out on the patio to set this table while the sun was shining.
I’m headed to the Sounders Soccer game tonight with my son so I hope to get around to see your tables tomorrow! Happy Summer to all of you!
I’m also joining in with Susan at Between Naps on the Porch for Tablescape Thursday.
I am always intrigued by lighthouses and your dishes are so cute! I can’t believe you were so lucky to find them at Goodwill. And the shells are beautiful. I agree that bubble glasses are perfect for beach tables– I did the same on mine! Linda
Hi, Ellen! I’ve missed you! Great to see you here today!!! You want sunshine, do ya? I’ll send you all you want! We have been inundated with sunshine over the past several weeks. We need rain!!!!!!! We could also use a cool down, so any temps in the 60s or 70s you have layin’ around would be much appreciated! π You got those chargers at Goodwill??? Wow! Great find! I also love the plates. I really like lighthouses!!! I like how you used the flatware with the shell end. Very nice! Really great job extending the centerpiece down the table with the bead clusters and shells, too!
What a nice tablescape. I love the lighthouse dishes! I can not get enough shells..I just love them. Sounds like yours have good memories. ~~Linda
Hi Ellen~ I love your lighthouse series of dishes! I do not have good luck at GW! Your shell centerpiece is perfect along with your bubble glasses at your table. We are in the 90’s this week, I’m looking forward to a little shade and cool breezes! Happy Summer to you π
What wonderful Lighthouse plates and such a pretty table –
I’m sure it’s fun to play with table settings with so much variety available to draw from. You must have a great goodwill store nearby to find such treasures.
I recently sold a bunch of my cobalt blue dishes. Now I’m wondering if that was such a good idea.
Beautiful! You certainly have the knack for setting a table! I agree the bubble goblets are perfect!
Great idea!
I love, love, love the lighthouse dishes. How pretty are they. I think the bubble goblets are perfect too!
Wonderful colors….I adore the goblets. The putty color of the tablecloth is really interesting in combination with your water colors. Well done! Thanks for inviting us for a peak. Cherry Kay
Great table, Ellen…love the salad plates and those bubble stems are such a beautiful shade of blue.
Oh, this is so very cute! Love the lighthouse plates, and all the blue glass pieces. The crystal beads are the perfect accent. You are an amazing GW shopper!
You’ve got talent..that’s for sure! Very nice..
Your lighthouse plates are great.., The seashells add the perfect touch. Love the bubble glasses, they remind me of the surf. Great table.. xo marlis
What amazing Goodwill finds! The lighthouse plates are just lovely and I love the little touch of red they add. Your glasses are so pretty and what a wonderful shell collection you have! Thanks so much for sharing your table!
Very festive and beachy tablescape. I hope that you enjoyed a wonderful meal al fresco.
Ooooooo…. love love love this – perfect for summer.
What a perfect first day of summer “let’s dish”. Love it!
Love the blue glassware and those lighthouse plates. The centerpiece is so simple, but so creative! Thanks for sharing!
So pretty! I love those light house plates, they would have hopped in my basket too! You do well at GW, such pretty glasses! A fine beach table, so glad you joined Let’s Dish at the Beach. Don’t forget your sunscreen on next week it will be At the Dermatologist! π
Your table has me thinking that summer might, just possibly, arrive up here, too! We were promised one day of sunshine, and got it yesterday – today we’re back to cloud and cool winds.
Very Nautical! Can’t believe you found all those cute things at GW!
Ellen, your table is wonderful. Of course, I love those salad plates.:-) I need to visit GW more often!
So beach I could almost feel cool sand between my toes as I looked at each shot.
(and wouldn’t it be fun to have sand under the tables and chairs with that setting?)
Amazing! Love the seaside theme…so nicely done.
PS Do you have a warehouse of supplies for every theme? Wish you lived next door!
I love this tablescape. I need to get myself to a Good Will, I have to go to the next state! xo
What a wonderful beach-y table — I love the centerpiece.
I really love those light house plates! Since I don’t have any of my own, I would love something like that. The colors in them are so vivid and look beautiful with those blue glasses.
Which, by the way, I would like as well.
I don’t want much, do I?
I love it.
Love the lighthouse plates, so cute and perfect for the theme. Sure wish I had a set of those. Great glue glassware, you definitely have beachy going on.
Ellen, I love those lighthouse dishes. You set such a pretty table with them. I wish I lived near a GW Store as good as the one you obviously shop. laurie
Howdy from Kansas! Love your blue bubble glasses. Really pretty!!! Nice table. Thanx for coming by HomeHaven. Enjoyed your visit.
God bless,

Those lighthouse plates are really cute! I love the blue and green goblets! Neat collection of shells!
Katherine
Your lighthouse plates are fantastic. the whole table feels just perfect for a by the sea get together
I know a cottage that is completely decorated with a lighthouse theme – your dishes would fit in perfectly! Hope you’re still enjoying sunshine – we’re getting some badly needed rain. Happy weekend Ellen!
